the method to the madness

This night fell apart for me from the start. I was working from 4 am to 4 pm saturday, and when I got home, there was so much shit to get done before the party that I barely got any sleep. I was also really sick, developing a flu and even had a bit of a fever. But I had to make it out none the less because it was one of my best friends birthdays.

So we make it to Guv, and sure enough, I have no ID. FACK!! I had to drive all the way back to hamilton, to pick up id, and then back to the Guv. Not only that, they closed the gardiner, both ways, due to construction, so that made it 50 times harder considering I don't know the city too well and lakeshore traffic was BRUTAL.

Finally get back to the Guv around 2:15, and wait in the coat check lineup for over 30 minutes. JZ was already spinning but my patience was so paper thin and continuely tested I had a tough time relaxing. I went to get some "relaxant" and it put me to sleep. I tried ever so hard to make this party happen but sadly it seemed that everything that could have gone wrong, went wrong. My first bad night at guv.

At around 4:15, things started looking up. I wish I concentrated more on JZ's set but my mind wasn't there.

Nonetheless it was great partying and meeting alot of TA's! Andrea, always a pleasure. Alex, good times! MarkT, musicsnob_not, DJ LKD, Graham great meeting you guys. If I'm forgetting anybody, apologies, the night's a bit of a blur. Milos, it's been way too long, I haven't seen you since highschool! Jayx1, I wanted to meet you last night but never ended up finding ya.

Sorry LKD, I dunno what happened on the balcony. I think the bouncer was ushering me out so I just walked off without thinking. My bad.

At least the end of the night pulled through to be a good time.


Karim

wicked night!!!
i was so tired after the Mistress on Friday that i didnt expect much. But zabiela once again showed how good he really is with a phenomenal set.

Mark was brilliant as well setting James up beautifully and then taking the BPM to a new level afterwords.

Honestly, if someone says something along the lines of:

"Yea, I didn't enjoy it at all. It's not my cup of tea but it was my friends bday, so I showed up"

...then I don't have a problem with it one bit. You didn't have fun. Fine. Or, just don't post in the thread like I didn't in the Marco V thread, because I had nothing positive to say about the actual music.

But coming in and saying "oh man that was soooooo boring! zzZZzzz ZZzzZZ!! This party just confirmed my absolute hatred for "prog" is totally disrespectful to the DJ, and it's complete flamebait. Not to mention it's pretty ignorant.

Honestly, think before you say it. I've made an effort to not partake in any trance/Tiesto-related threads because I know what I would say in those, but I'm tired of arguing. It's a shame others still wanna keep it going though..............

Oh, and when I say "evolve your musical tastes" it's not about moving from trance to prog. Thats just so 2002 and complete bullshit. It's about actually expanding your horizons to other sounds; and this includes everything from house, to breaks, to rock and hip hop.

Don't get me wrong. I'm a HUGE zabiela fan. I love his sound and my favorite track of recent time is his remix of Ficta - Eli. When he does breaks he does them spot on, and I did like many of the tracks he played, I just wasn't in a position to comment on his programming, and his overall set (since I did miss the beginning of it).

It was external sources against me, nothing against the music. I did everything in my power that night to make sure my killed buzz didn't kill anybody elses.

ah ha!! it's people like you that i'm scared of. why is it so hard to think a little bit about others and stay home if you are sick. how many others did you get sick just for one night of fun?
